Neighborhoods: Grandview Heights
Terrible is the only way to explain it – Ever since the new owners have taken over, they have made it a point to attempt to turn this establishment into something it is not. We went to The Knotty Pine on New Years expecting something special. Instead we were served burned oily mushrooms, burned greasy and tough asparagus, dry, tough new york strip (which I may add was supposed to be served medium-well) dry cold chicken, and cold potatos. To add insult to injury, our server was inattentive, and we ended up dropping around $80.00 for the worst meal I have ever had. Other times we have visited this place and had similar (although not as terrible) experiences, each time noting that everything is overpriced, poorly cooked, or portioned improperly. I would not suggest going there unless it is simply for a cocktail and to listen to music.
This bar and eatery has been a Grandview staple since 1935. – The Scene
The Knotty Pine originally opened in 1935, and was taken over by new ownership five years ago. The décor is fairly modern, but some of the adornments reveal the bar's antiquity. It has two wood-paneled dining rooms and a barroom, as well as a healthy-sized patio. During mealtimes, you'll find more of a family atmosphere here, while nights tend to belong to drinking friends.
The Food
The house specialty is ribs, and all meats are smoked on site. There are several other good old American menu options, including burgers, homemade soups, fish sandwiches and salads. Appetizer options abound for happy-hour types.
The Crowd
Many locals spend their evenings at the Knotty Pine, but it also attracts plenty of folks from other areas of the city who are looking for a nice, friendly place to have a beer.

Killington co-founder Sargent dead at 83By Bruce Edwards
STAFF WRITER | November 09,2012
Joseph Sargent, co-founder of the Killington Ski Area, whose financial acumen was especially critical in the early days of the resort, died Wednesday in West Hartford, Conn. He was 83.
In 1956, Sargent and Preston Leete Smith founded Sherburne Corp. to fulfill Smiths vision to build a ski area from scratch out of the wilderness of the Calvin Coolidge State Forest, five miles from Route 4 in what was then the town of Sherburne.
The two raised $80,000 from local investors with Smith persuading the state to build a five-mile access road in the shadow of Killington Mountain.
On Dec. 13, 1958, Killington Ski Area opened with seven trails, two surface lifts and a Depression-era Civilian Conservation Corps building serving as a base lodge.
Smith and Sargent, who both grew up in West Hartford, came together with opposite backgrounds: Smiths was forestry, and Sargents was finance. But the two meshed into a successful business relationship.
Perhaps the most important other ingredient was mutual respect, Smith wrote Thursday in an email from his home in Florida. The ski business is a very complex business for the fact that it encompasses an array of different businesses rolled into one.
Smith also recalled his friend and partner as someone who wasnt afraid to get his hands dirty. He said Sargent and his wife, Mary, would travel on weekends from their home in Connecticut.
Sargent in the early days pitched in on trail clearing or whatever had to be done, as everyone associated did, since funds were very limited, Smith said.
He said the two of them did virtually all the lift and trail design for the first 10 years the resort was operating.
Phil Camp, Killingtons first marketing director and its third employee, recalled Sargent as more than just a savvy businessman.
He was a financial genius and an everyday guy, said Camp, publisher of the Vermont Standard. And when it came time to get out and direct traffic Joe was there helping. If it needed something to get to the top of the mountain, Joe put an old military knapsack on his back.
Sargent did have one bit of advice when Camp started working at the ski area in 1959. Theres only one thing we require of you, Camp said. He said never go over budget.
It was advice Camp said he took to heart.
Sargent, who graduated from Yale University with a degree in economics and geology, was managing partner and chairman of Conning & Co., an investment firm with a focus on the insurance business.
He served as chairman of Sherburne Corp. and its successor, S-K-I Ltd.
Smith credited Sargent with thinking outside the box in building a business that was challenged in no small part by its seasonal nature. It was also a highly competitive business.
He put forth the idea of spy in the sky, Smith said. Flights were scheduled to photograph the parking lots of their competitors, after which the cars were counted. This provided Killington a means to measure its marketing expense and success.
Under Smith and Sargent, Killington became the largest ski area in the East. It acquired other ski resorts, including Mount Snow in Vermont, Bear Mountain in California, Waterville Valley in New Hampshire and Sugarloaf in Maine.
S-K-I Ltd., a publicly traded company, was sold in 1996 to Leslie B. Otten, who started American Skiing Co. Today, Killington and its sister resort, Pico, are owned by Powdr Corp. of Utah.
Larry Jensen, who was Killingtons manager of business development and later controller, remembered Sargent as someone respected by Smith and others for his fairness and leadership.
One of Pres Smiths strengths was he was willing to listen to people, and Joe was one of the people he listened to very carefully, Jensen said, and I think had a great deal to do with the overall success at Killington.
Added Smith: Joseph D. Sargent indeed had a profound impact on Vermont and the ski business.

Grey's Anatomy Referenced on Scrubsby Steve Marsi at .
On last night's episode of Scrubs, the offbeat NBC comedy now in its fifth season, doctors John "J.D." Dorian (Zach Braff) and Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke) admit to being big fans. When J.D. asks Elliot, his ex-girlfriend and current roommate, if she would like to join him in his pursuit of hooking up with interns -- an idea that would make certain neurosurgeons at Seattle Grace proud -- she replies that she would rather just go home and watch Grey's Anatomy.
J.D.'s whimsical reply: "Ah, yes, I do love that show. It's like they just watch our lives and then put it on television..."
While the pure emotion of Grey's Anatomy is about as far removed from the hilarity and zaniness of Scrubs as two medical shows can be, it's nice to see the latter's appreciation.

OMG how can i say this in a nice way , Scrubs is for smart people , GA is for the common idiots .
Why??? because you GA fans can't understand humor , want proof well take this article for example , you idiots they made fun of you , i'm italian and caught the hint , my five year old child got it
Fast tip: learn to speak and maybe someday you will realize when people are making fun of you
ok, first off, if you think Grey's Anatomy (and yes it is with an e, not an a, duh) then why are you on their website! Not to mention that GA has way more viewers and higher ratings that Scrubs has had or ever will. If you hate Grey's soooo bad, then back off our show! I mean, don't come to the site, don't read about it, and don't watch things about it or even watch it! If you hate it so much, then leave it alone and you don't have to deal with it! Oh, and go back to grammar school cause most of you don't have proper English.

Hate that this could be her last season on Love and Hip Hop Atlanta though, but if she goes, I'll understand that it's for the best. I'm sure this album will solitify her anyway.
- Stevie Wonder Offended By Lil Wayne's 'Beat The P-ssy Up Like Emmett Till' Lyrics
I hate that Simeon Wright said "this shows how lost our youth are" because most of us are just as disgusted by ignorant and classless lyrics as well.
Lil' Wayne, haven't you gotten enough of public coonery? YOU'VE WON! Everyone now thinks that black people belong on the porch with our monkey kin because of people like you! Can you just go ahead and retire for our sakes????
- Solange, Christina Milian, J. Lo, Kim Kardashian, Chris Brown & More Attend Tommy Hilfiger & Top Shop Launch Events
Solange makes fashion look effortless! I'm actually not feeling Estelle's look…. AT ALL!!!
I really like Chris Brown's jacket. And I'm kinda shocked at J.Lo actually being… covered up! I think it's a nice look for her! I see her thighs and boobs and everything every time she steps out. Mystery is good sometimes!
- Tamar Braxton Reveals The Way To A Woman's Heart On Valentine's Day
I love Tamar lol she needs to go ahead and drop that album though. I know its going to have HITS.
And I like her and Vince as a couple! But she needs to quit playing, she'd be GREASY if that man didn't drop stacks on her for Valentine's Day!

- Increase in Alcohol Violations, Contraband Seized-
Annapolis, Md. (June 29, 2011) – Known for his commitment to vigilantly enforcing Maryland tax laws, Comptroller Peter Franchot today announced the final figures for alcohol, cigarette and motor fuel violations for fiscal year 2011. Making the announcement surrounded by contraband products, Franchot praised the work of his agents and local law enforcement officials in working together to protect law-abiding businesses from underground operations and tax cheats.
"I am very proud of the work our field enforcement agents and inspectors have done and the results from this past fiscal year are a testament to their efforts," said Comptroller Franchot. "The blatant disregard of Maryland tax laws, which protect law-abiding businesses and consumers, will not be ignored. Therefore, my agents will continue to work closely with our partners in law enforcement to enforce Maryland's alcohol, tobacco and motor fuel laws to send a message loud and clear that this type of activity will not be tolerated."
For the fiscal year 2011, which ends tomorrow, Comptroller agents issued 110 cigarette violations, resulting in the confiscation of 181,127 packs of cigarettes valued at $1 million. Both numbers represent a significant increase from fiscal year 2010, which ended with 72,105 seized packs. Along with increases in seized tobacco products, FY 2011 saw an increase in the amount of confiscated alcohol. This past year agents confiscated 320 gallons of distilled liquor, 18 gallons of wine and more than 3,615 containers of beer as a result of 61 violations. The total retail value of the seized alcohol was $49,794 compared to only $20,944 last year.
Field inspectors issued 238 motor fuel violations, a significant increase from the previous fiscal year's 15 violations. In addition, nearly $1.8 million in delinquent sales and use tax was collected by the office, all of which goes to the state's general fund.
Contraband alcohol and tobacco products are retained by the Comptroller's Office as evidence against a defendant until a pending case is adjudicated. If the defendant is found innocent of charges, then the products are returned to the owner. However, if the defendant is found guilty, the Comptroller's Office is required by state law to sell the product, with the exception of beer due to shorter shelf life. In order to bid on the product, one must have a Maryland retailer or wholesaler license for either alcohol or tobacco. All money collected from sales then goes back into the general fund.
In recent years, the Comptroller's Office has increased its enforcement efforts to crack down on the smuggling and sale of illegal cigarettes and alcohol. Considering the current economy and the upcoming change in the tax on alcohol to nine percent, the Comptroller has pledged to continue working with local law enforcement officials to ensure that the state and local jurisdictions receive the revenue they are due.

Is it ethical for government spouses to tag along at conventions?by Opinion Staff
Government workers in Palm Beach County complained after the county's Commission on Ethics ruled this month that officials who attend conventions or conferences should not be able to bring their spouses along – even if their stay in the hotel doesn't cost any extra money.
The basis was that allowing spouses to stay in hotel rooms on the taxpayers' dime (even if there is no extra cost) allowed them to get an unfair benefit from the trip.
That, along with a ruling that government workers should not be able to collect reward points from bookings for official travel, led to grumbling from the mayors of West Palm Beach and Palm Beach Gardens, along with the leader of the county's League of Cities.
The ethics commission's executive director later said he would ask commissioners to reverse their decision in July.
Is it ethical for government spouses to tag along at conventions? What do you think?


text: On his new solo album The Vertical Axis, Ian Crause, founding member of Essex band Disco Inferno, attempts to balance content with form. Back in the Nineties, Disco Inferno created swirling music of immediacy, a reaction to a neoliberal England, a way of figuring out how to fit in a globalizing, postmodern economic and cultural landscape, with lyrics commenting on class, immigration, loneliness, and depression among other themes. The music itself was carried by Crause triggering real-time samples with a midi-guitar, Rob Whatley doing the same but on drums, and Paul Wilmott grounding all the chaos with melodic bass lines. On the Vertical Axis, Crause's goals of form seem more realized, the content more thought out. (more…)

AUSTIN -- The Austin Fire Department's hiring practices are now under federal scrutiny. The Austin City Council will meet to get some legal advice after the U.S. Department of Justice launched an investigation.
The department will look into AFD's hiring practices when it comes to minorities. The City has spent millions of dollars diversifying AFD, but some council members have admitted that the department lacks diversity.
In 2009 the City hired a Chicago company to help develop a new hiring process. Then in 2011 the City spent about a million dollars to hire 80 firefighters in hopes that ethnicity numbers would rise.
The City settled a discrimination lawsuit that year as well, which was filed by two white battalion chiefs.

I'm hoping and praying that this week will bring me the peace of mind I need to get myself back on track and back into my work full force. I have to return the rental car tomorrow (Tuesday) which is in Louisiana, 3 hours away, but once that is all done, I'm going to be here working. I promise. I took the time i needed to grieve over the loss of my father-in-law, recover from my accident, and shop for a new car, so God willing, I should be back to normal now.
I'm so sorry I haven't been here for so long, but please rest assured, I'm back now, and I will also be extending all premium memberships an additional 2 months to compensate for loss time of my getting any new skins out. Please understand, during my time away, many of you emailed me, PMed me, called me and text messaged me and I wasn't able to reply to all of you, but I will do my best. But it is very important that I get back to work as fast as I can, so please, please, bare with me. This will not be easy. I've been away now for about 9 weeks.
I will be spending the evening catching up on the newest release of IPB and trying like crazy to get some work done. I'll have my AIM, Yahoo, MSN and google talk open incase anyone needs me.
I'll be leaving here early in the morning about 8am to return the rental car and I expect to be back late afternoon. If I'm not back at my desk when I get home, I WILL be back for certain on Wednesday morning. No worries.
I'm not sure how anyone found out about my accident before I managed to get it posted. I only told my family. But for those that contacted me about it with offers of prayers and concern, I want to thank you. For those of you that were misinformed and told that I did not survive the accident, I'm very sorry. I have no idea how on earth that rumor was spread. The best I can figure is maybe someone noticed me from the ad in the paper of something. I have no idea. But believe me, I'm alive and well and promise to be getting back to work right away.
Big Hugs,
Posted 05 July 2010 - 05:51 PM

I would go to church on Sunday if I were you to praise God and thank Him for little mercies.

Thanks for the update and of course the extra 2 months extension which is much appreciated.
I am shocked that nobody stopped to assist you and even more so that the 999 service put you on hold. If that happened in the UK, trust me, it would make the News at Ten on all news stations! That is a outright disgrace and you should certainly follow that up with a complaint (legal or otherwise) within 30 days.
Again, all the best and welcome back.

Harry Tsao came out swinging: "Trade shows are great, but is it really worth investing a million dollars--once you factor in all costs--to come to Comdex?" Tsao, vice president of marketing for ShowExpo.com, a Pasadena, Calif., company that offers trade show-like service from a Web site, wasn't afraid of telling an audience of show and event managers that computer events were too big, too expensive, and not effective enough at delivering business.
So began the Computer Event Marketing Association (CEMA) Face-to-Face luncheon conference at Comdex. Held November 18 at the Benihana Restaurant in the Las Vegas Hilton Hotel, it was by all accounts the best-attended (87 participants) meeting of its type in CEMA's history.
Tsao's main sparring partner was William R. Sell, general manager of ZDEvents' Comdex Group--the gentleman in charge of the 220,000-attendee convention of which the CEMA luncheon was a tiny part. Also on the panel was Marilyn R. Kroner, at the time the trade show and events manager for Exabyte Corp. of Boulder, Colo. As a show manager and neutral party, she was there to ask Tsao and Sell where a virtual trade show service like ShowExpo.com might fit in the overall marketing mix. But Tsao's strong opening statement put her more in the position of referee.
Virtual Infant Sell counterpunched well: "I might point out that Harry is exhibiting here to launch a virtual trade show," he said. "Will virtual trade shows replace live events? If you look at Trade-show Week's figures, there are more high-tech shows than ever. Obviously the virtual show hasn't replaced much of anything. It's still in its infancy."
*New CEMA Director
The Computer Event Marketing Association recently hired a new executive director for its Sudbury, Mass.-based office. Leigh Walker, former director of programs and services for the Northeast Public Power Association, fills the post vacated by Melissa Bachelder. Walker's responsibilities include expanding the CEMA membership and member services; and overseeing event planning, the CEMA Web site (www.cemaonline.com), the CEMA Communicator newsletter, and other association communications. She welcomes your comments and suggestions. If you want to learn more about CEMA, contact Walker at (978) 443-3330, ext. 1228; email@example.com.
CEMA's annual meeting, Summit '99, will be held July 27 to 30 at Chateau Mont Tremblant in Quebec.
Tsao backed off a little, saying he expected his site (www.showexpo.com) to draw well from the SOHO (small office/home office) market, which he described as a fast-growing market that includes people without the time or resources to attend a convention like Comdex. He reported that since his site had opened the day before (November 17), it had pulled 250,000 hits in 13 hours--far above projections.
Kroner offered a defense of live events: "At a virtual trade show, people can only request information. At your booth, they can experience your product face-to-face. The important question to me is where virtual trade shows fit in the marketing mix? Will there someday be a virtual trade show manager? Should face-to-face marketers own this part of the marketing effort?"
Virtually Standing Intel's Bob Singer summed up the role of the virtual show: "This is just another form of marketing communications," he said, adding that Intel had created its own virtual booth at the Embedded Systems show, which required teamwork between the trade show team and the marketing communications team.
Asked whether there were any virtual booth staff at ShowExpo.com, Tsao said that a chat feature, using a live person, was in the works. Singer told the audience that Intel was trying out new videoconferencing technology that would provide good-quality video over low-cost phone lines. "We'll have somebody on our Web site to respond to queries," he said, then waited a beat and added, "And we'll make them stand up all day."
In closing, Sell asked the crowd whether the exhibitor handbook and contracts ought to be offered at the Comdex Web site. Kroner pointed out that while it was a great idea, there still had to be printed materials. "We're still dealing with service contractors who don't want to use the Web."
fast facts * From city to city, the tax bite on your hotel bill can vary as much as 8 percent. Here are the highest and the lowest hotel tax rates from America's 50 top cities. The figure includes state taxes, local occupancy taxes, and any other surtaxes imposed.
There are several unusual aspects of the proposed World Expo Center project in Central Florida. For one thing, if the developers' ambitious plans come to fruition, the 2.4 million-square-foot facility will be the nation's biggest exhibition hall, outdistancing even McCormick's 2.2 million square feet. Then there's the money trail: Not only is WEC being funded mostly by private money, but, for the first time in the trade show industry's history, show management companies are joining as equity partners, contributing a total of 20 percent of the funding.
While WEC execs would not reveal the three partners' names at press time, they are "show management companies and associations that represent hundreds of shows--every type of show you can think of, including high technology," says Jerry Zwick, executive vice president, WEC.
In return for their investment, partners are getting what amounts to time shares, trade show-style. They are guaranteed dates and space for the next 40 years, receive a five percent discount off hall rental fees, and get a share of the center's total revenue. They also get a "'noncompete'" guarantee. If a show that is potentially competitive to an equity partner's show--meaning that 15 percent of the products are similar--wants to rent the hall, the investor has the right to deny the booking. There is an exception to that guarantee--technology shows. "Technology shows are a fuzzy area," explains Zwick. "The range of shows is so wide, it is difficult to classify what would be a competitive show."
While the WEC concept is being hailed as innovative, the project is running into some serious obstacles. The most formidable comes from the Orange-Osceola State Attorney's Office, which is seeking to block a bond package earmarked to fund a county convention center. The center is part of the WEC vision: The $1.1 billion proposed project includes the exposition hall, the 120,000-square-foot, county-owned convention center, three hotels with 5,000 rooms, parking for 20,000 cars, and a shopping mall and entertainment complex. The development cannot move forward until the bond issue is resolved.
While some press reports suggest the project is in trouble, Jim Lewis, WEC vice president of national sales, expects the situation to be resolved by spring. If the court overturns the bond validation, "It will delay the project, not kill it," he says. WEC execs are now predicting a 2002 opening. --Tamar Hosansky
*THE EURO IS COMING--READY OR NOT On January 1, 1999, the 11 members of the European Community who have agreed to participate in currency union (Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal, and Spain) must start keeping track of transactions in the euro as well as in their local currencies. On January 1, 2002, local currencies will disappear, and all transactions in the 11 countries will be conducted in euros.
Here are some of the advantages and problems the euro will create for North American meeting planners between now and 2002:
Advantages * Transparent pricing. "Customers will be able to easily compare costs of hotel accommodation . . . throughout Europe," says Gebhard Rainer, director of finance for Hyatt International Hotels Europe. Price differentials will be even more obvious on commodities like coffee and soft drinks. There are some predictions that there will be a leveling effect on prices.
* Cheaper currency exchange. Even at the beginning of the transition, local currencies will be exchanged based on their rate against the euro, and the euro's against the dollar. That means planners need only pay attention to the euro/dollar, and overall transaction costs should be reduced.
Problems * Uneven rates of adoption. With 11 participating nations, there are 11 different plans for the changeover. The Dutch contemplate a "big-bang" change--swift and complete. Other countries are still arguing among themselves about how to pace the introduction of the euro.
* Mistakes and fraud. In any changeover, there are likely to be both honest errors and close dealing by businesspeople who hope to exploit a confusing situation.
* Contract integrity. Any contracts with hotels or congress halls that involve escrow accounts or in any way make reference to interest rate benchmarks are going to be a problem. --David Erickson
*HILTON/UNISYS PILOT Hotels handle in-room connectivity and productivity in a variety of ways--from workstations that wheel from guest to guest, to T1 data ports for every room. Hilton Hotels has come up with its own approach--the Essential Guest Services Network (EGSN).
The project is a partnership of Hilton and Unisys Corp., with a pilot program now under way in 12 guest rooms at the Anaheim (Calif.) Hilton and Towers. EGSN rooms feature a touch-screen monitor, a PC unit (without a hard drive), and an optional keyboard. The workstation is wired to in-hotel servers, which are then wired to a large off-site Unisys server system, giving guests access to
* hotel services database,
* e-mail (no laptop needed),
* Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint software, and the Internet Explorer 4.01 browser,
* virtual jukebox--120,000 songs that can be played or purchased,
* worldwide news and weather,
* interactive computer games,
* information on local attractions, dining, and entertainment, and
* the ability to book any Hilton Hotel, and obtain status reports on Hilton frequent-traveler accounts.
Services will be offered at no cost to guests. Hilton expects to pay for the system through e-commerce and advertising revenues. However, even if the pilot goes well, EGSN will be installed only in executive class rooms. Look for the rooms to come on-line throughout 1999.
*QUICK PROJECTORS RentQuick.com, a new company out of Fisherville, Va., is taking a niche approach to the audiovisual rental market. The company rents only data video projectors. And it rents only four types, at that.
RentQuick.com does not supply audio, staging, or most other things you would expect from an AV company. It ships its projectors in a hard-shell case via second-day FedEx. Tech support is handled over a 24-hour, seven-day, toll-free tech line. But despite the minimalist approach, owner Brett Hayes stresses that RentQuick.com isn't just a shipping company; it works with customers both before an event (to determine the right projector) and during the rental period (tracking the shipment and answering questions).
The product line ranges from a $99 per day Sony, appropriate for PowerPoint presentations, up to a high-end InFocus unit. Visit the company at www.rentquick.com.
*Silicon Jets San Jose International Airport continues to strengthen its transcontinental scheduling. After American Airlines added nonstops to New York and Washington Dulles last summer, United Airlines stepped in with a new Dulles flight in September. Now, Continental will begin flying nonstop service from San Jose to New York/Newark on May 1.
*PEOPLE IN THE NEWS Benchmark Tape Systems Corp., Boulder, Colo., brought on Marilyn R. Kroner in early January to work on the company's trade shows and events. Her title was not yet known at press time. Previously, Kroner was ma nager, trade shows/events/leads for Exabyte Corp., also in Boulder.
American Show Management has named Pat Kearney as president and CEO. ASM, based in Portland, Ore, produces more than 50 IT events a year through its Information Technology Expositions & Conferences division. Kearney most recently served as vice president North American sales & operations for Central Point Software.
Le Meridien Boston has named Kelly Lennon sales manager, responsible for booking computer and high-tech groups in the Chicago and Los Angeles areas. She joins from Fiesta Americana Hotels in Chicago.
D. Catherine Sherry has joined Pacific Agenda, a meeting and incentive planning company in San Francisco, as sales manager. Previously, she served as director of sales--international with DL Transnational Associates Inc., a destination management company in Boston.
The Network Conference Company, which manages The Hayes Conference Center in San Jose, Calif., and the Network Meeting Center at Techmart, in Santa Clara, Calif., has promoted Dan Marks to the newly created position of vice president of sales and marketing. He had been director of sales at The Hayes. Assuming his former position is Tracy Berg, who previously served as director of sales at Techmart.
Mark Leiss has been named regional vice president, sales and marketing for PGI, the Arlington, Va.-based event and communications agency. Based in New York, Leiss will handle corporate clients in New York and New England. He had been with Caribiner International, heading up sales to the telecommunications and high-tech industries.

Love the pic of Invertigo, looks very creepy. Oh wait, it's a Vekoma. Doesn't need any help there.
Nice report. Was this your first trip?
Kings Island, located outside of Cincinnati, Ohio, opened its gates for the firsts time on April 29, 1972. It was built as a replacement park for Coney Island and most of the rides were moved. The new location was chosen because the former Coney Island park was subject to frequent flooding.
Since opening day, the centerpiece of the park is the one-third scale replica of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France.
It can be seen from many areas of the park and is always a great reference point in case you get turned around.
The main attraction on opening day in 1972 was Racer, a twin-track wooden roller coaster. To this day it continues to provide a great classic coaster ride with plenty of thrills and negative G air time.
Since we were here in the fall, all the Halloween festivities were in full swing and the park was also prepared for their annual Halloween Haunt event.
Because of that, crowds were heavier than usual. It didn't help that it was unseasonably warm for this time of year. The high was in the lower 80s.
Kings Island is a well laid out park with lots of character and well maintained landscaping.
Everywhere you turn, there is a nice view...but we really came for the rides and roller coasters. The views were just an added bonus.
Our day started out with early rides on Diamondback before the park opened to the general public. This is King Island's Bolliger & Mabillard (B&M) hyper coaster (230 feet tall) and is worth taking a trip to the park to ride. One unique feature is the splashdown water effect at the end of the ride.
We were also privileged to get early ride time on the world's longest wooden roller coaster, The Beast. At nearly 1 1/2 miles long and covering over 35 densely forested acres, it was one of the fastest and tallest coasters ever built when it opened in 1979.
When it was nearly time for the park to open, we ran into a park employee named Brian who is also a coaster enthusiast. He was very helpful in guiding us to the fastest route to Firehawk and Flight of Fear, two of the coasters that are traditionally difficult to get rides on. (Thanks Brian!)
Firehawk is a flying coaster made by Vekoma and has some great flying time as well as some phenomenal ground hugging elements. Those elements make it a good ride that every coaster enthusiast should experience at least once.
Flight of Fear was the first linear induction motor (LIM) launched coaster and takes you through a great indoor dark adventure. King's Island has done a great job of maintaining the theming of this ride over the past 15 years since its opening.
Vortex is a classic steel looping coaster made by Arrow Dynamics. They revolutionized the steel coaster industry with their looping and corkscrew coasters which paved the way for the modern steel coasters that are being manufactured today. We weren't able to ride it during this trop but look forward to the experience next time we visit.
We were at the park for a coaster enthusiast's event which included a walk-back behind the fences to see Diamondback and The Beast up. Here are some pictures from a perspective that most people don't get to see.
This is looking up through the structure of The Beast's first lift hill.
Here is the first drop of 135 feet before the train enters the first of three tunnels.
Here is the train at over 60 MPH right before it enters the first tunnel.
Here's another nice action shot around one of the many turns. The amount of wood and structure in this coaster is massive and very impressive. It certainly lives up to its name of The Beast.
We also got some nice shots of Diamondback and an almost head-on view of the first 215 foot drop.
Our tour was also timed nicely so were able to get some great shots of the K.I. and Miami Valley Railroad train. The two steam engine trains are powered by propane and are full scale replicas of the famous 1800's locomotive, The General.
The new ride for 2011 is a 301' swing called Windseeker. While it sounds daunting, it is tame enough for anybody in the family to ride who is over 52 inches tall. Can you get past your fear of heights? Fortunately I did.
If you are a lover of dark rides, then Boo Blasters on Boo Hill is a must ride attraction. This is a newer version manufactured by Sally Corporation.
As it drew later in the day, we headed over to Festhaus.
We won VIP passes to the wrestling show being held there, Half Pint Brawlers. It is professional style wrestling featuring midgets.
We had front row seats. You couldn't get any closer to the action without being in the ring.
With the intensity they had while wrestling, I didn't want to be in the ring.
...although they didn't always stay in the ring.
While we were enjoying Half Pint Brawlers, nighttime crept up on us and Halloween Haunt was in full swing. There was still plenty to do if haunts aren't for you. Since the park was so incredibly busy, the lines for the haunts were extremely long so we had to pass on all of them this time.
Invertigo, an inverted boomerang coaster manufactured by Vekoma, lit up the night sky. Well, actually the reflection of the lights on the bright yellow track lit up the sky.
Windseeker was also lighting up the night sky. You can only imagine the feeling of soaring through the sky in the dark.
Unfortunately it was time to wrap up our trip so we could get on the road to our next stop.
Kings Island is owned by Cedar Fair Entertainment Company where each park has a unique and separate character. The staff is generally friendly and helpful and the parks are clean and well maintained. The food and drink prices are higher than average but overall a day at the park is a good value, especially if you have a season pass or do your homework and get a discount off of gate admission prices.
We want to thank the staff of Kings Island for a great, enjoyable day!
Here is a video of our trip.

Yes, this was our first trip (ever) to the park. We were planning it for mid June but after deciding to do CoasterMania at Cedar Point the first weekend in June, we had to change our plans because of scheduling conflicts.
I wish I had more videos for my video but I had an issue. Fortunately I got it straight for the next video I'll be making.

Hey Rick! What a great trip report! I'm so glad you got to enjoy your day at my home park! Out of everything you rode, what was your favorite? I'm quite partial to Diamondback since I used to work on it.
I have yet to go to Kings Island since I moved back from Arizona. I'm headed there tomorrow evening. Can't wait to ride WindSeeker since I followed from announcement to completion!
Wow, you would think they shot the Haunt commercial footage in front of Invertigo rather than Silver Bullet at Knott's.

Chris, you know I'm partial to Intimidator at my home park although Diamondback was good. I liked that the two are certainly different.
With the crowds we only got to ride half of the coasters, but I think The Beast was my favorite of what we rode. I've not ridden anything like it before and I don't think there is anything out there like it.

Great report! Which kings Park do you like better?( KD or KI) I enjoyed Kings dominion a whole heck of a lot, so I wonder if I'll like kings island as much as that. I can't wait to get there and meet everyone next summer.Sucks SOB wont be open. Kinda makes me depressed I'm missing it, even though it's terrible,lol. Credits > the feeling . That's why I got on hurler at KD. Ugh.... Okay, I'm just ranting randomly now. Anyway, cool report dude! Lol
Oh! How'd ya like Camden? And why didn't you pick me up on the way up?! You drove straight through my county(i think) Lol.

It's hard to judge because KI was many times busier than KD when I was there. Overall, they are both very similar parks in my opinion.
Kings Island did say that SOB is still standing because they haven't given up on it yet. They wouldn't divulge any more details, because they really don't have any. They're watching what's happening in the amusement park industry to see what the future might hold for SOB.
I did drive straight through your county. I saw the signs for Concord shortly after we entered West Virginia. Camden didn't open until 6 so I knew you would have already been on your way to Charlotte. While I was driving, I wondered if I passed you going the other direction. Camden is a decent park, and I'm glad it's still around. It allows me to expose my kids to some culture of what amusement parks used to be like before the mega parks came around and caused a lot of these smaller parks to close.

SOB is pretty much gone. Looks like they've pretty much taken alot of key parts out to just use it as a haunt.

You actually passed right by my high school as well. There's a new building near exit 14, that's our new middle school. My high school is right behind it. You can barely see it through the trees though. Oh yeah, that's right, I was going to scarowinds that day! lol. I'd say you did. We left around 2:30, and didn't make it down there until 7:30 because of the ridiculous traffic. In pictures It looks really crappy, but I guess it would make a decent family park. I have some credits I need to stop and get on my way to or from KI next year.

The problem with Texas Giant is that it's so new. Nobody has any idea how it will hold up since it's not even been a full season, yet. Once it's been proven to stand up well after a couple of seasons, I think they may consider it. You can imagine the major investment that was to redo Texas giant.
That's cool. If I recall, we went past Concord around 1 PM - we were in Huntington around 3:00. I was actually tempted to swing by, but it's not so easy to just swing into places with a 32' motorhome and a 3' tow bar towing a 15' car (51' total length). I also can't back when towing with a tow bar so if I get into a bind, I have to disconnect the car, get out of the bind, then reconnect the car. That whole process takes about 30 minutes.

Glad you made it to KI, the park has gone up and down in my opinon over the years but in 2009 I thought it was a lot better, Diamondback didn't hurt either. And Beast was running good that year too, so that helped.
KI is still the only park I've ever ridden through in a limo. Carowinds is the only park I've driven through in my Beetle.

You definitely should have! I'm sure you wouldn't have had too much of a problem. People bring their RV's and stuff down that way all the time. Actually, if you're looking for a place to do a little nature trip to where you can park your RV and stuff, check out Pipestem state park , or down in hinton, WV near Bluestone lake+ state park. They're both down past concord and both places are equally as beautiful. Pipestem has awesome views and lots of restaurants and recreational stuff to do, plus wildlife will literally walk up to you. I've had a couple encounters with deer myself. Bluestone Lake has...well...an artificial reservoir that the bluestone dam holds back. Hinton is pretty close there for your basic needs for both sites. Has a kroger, magic mart and dairy queen, plus a few other restaurants there. Nothing great, but people still come from all over to stay in those areas.

I'll have to keep that in mind. I bookmarked those two campgrounds. I know there are a lot of good places to go for nature in WV, we just haven't explored them yet.
Don't tell my wife about those parks... She'll want me to take her there instead of Hershey Park, Wild Adventures, or something like that... LOL

There were a ton of surprises this past NHL season. Between the absurd number of injuries and the general lack of scoring, many players who were normally excellent options for streaming became mainstays on fantasy rosters. This week's Cage Match will focus on two such surprise players; Michael Ryder and Radim Vrbata. The veteran wingers each scored 35 goals and 62 points this season, making them a near perfect match for one another.
Don't be surprised if both Ryder and Vrbata decline next season. They are both over 30 years old and both set career highs in goals and points (okay, Ryder's actual career high was set in 2003-04 but that was almost a decade ago and his final tally this season was just one shy). It is only logical that they would fail to repeat their respective feats. Which one of the two is more likely to repeat (or at the very least decline less)?
My money is on Ryder. The first and most obvious reason is that he has produced like this before. As mentioned in an earlier caveat, Ryder's career high is in fact 63 points, set in 2003-04. This was also his third 30-goal season. He has produced like this before which makes it less likely that this past season was an aberration.
Vrbata's previous career highs were 27 goals and 56 points, which are not reasonably far off from what he produced this season but no other season of his really compares to the one he just had. It really seems as if for Vrbata it is about catching lightning in a bottle, whereas for Ryder it is simply about getting the opportunity to succeed.
Consider the ice time each player has received over the years. This season Vrbata skated 18:38 per game, including 3:13 on the power play and 1:16 on the penalty kill. Beyond the penalty kill time not much has changed over the past two seasons for Vrbata in Phoenix. His ice time in 2010-11 was 16:22 minutes per with 3:13 on the power play and 0:06 on the penalty kill while his 2009-10 numbers were 16:00 minutes per with 2:23 on the power play and 0:26 on the penalty kill. His opportunities and responsibilities have increased, just not drastically.
Ryder, on the other hand, was underutilized in Boston, where he spent the past three years. He received 14:29 minutes per game and 15:17 minutes per game in 2010-11 and 2009-10 respectively, while spending 2:05 and 2:25 minutes per game on the power play with negligible penalty kill time. In Dallas this past season Ryder's ice time jumped to 17:22 per game with 2:40 on the power play. Clearly Ryder's boost in production was the result of increased ice time but he also benefitted from improved linemates.
It is impossible to argue that Ryder was skating alongside scrubs in Boston – his most common linemates included David Krejci, Tyler Seguin and Blake Wheeler – it is just that he never did build great chemistry with those players. As Frozenpool will demonstrate, Ryder skated with much more favourable linemates in Dallas this season.
Ryder was reunited with his old running-mate from Montreal, Mike Ribeiro, but also benefitted from spending a lot of time with Loui Eriksson and Jamie Benn who are among the best playmakers in the league and are fantastically easy to play with.
Vrbata, meanwhile, may have simply benefitted from having skated with Ray Whitney, who experienced a renaissance this season however it is more than likely that Whitney was also the beneficiary of Vrbata's career season. As Frozenpool will show us Vrbata and Whitney were almost inseparable this season.
It is worth mentioning that Vrbata has been skating predominantly with Whitney (and third linemate Martin Hanzal) for the past two seasons and that they may have developed a formidable chemistry over time. Still, I am not so sure that improved chemistry really leads to a 15-point bump for Vrbata and a 20-point bump for Whitney. Instead, I am looking at the drastic increase in shooting percentage for Vrbata this season.
Vrbata scored on 15.1% of his shots this season, which is a near two-thirds hike on his career average of 9.4%. That's like switching from a handgun to a grenade launcher (shout out to the COD nerds).
Interestingly enough, Vrbata only hit the net on 73.3% of his shot attempts this season. In his previous three seasons with Phoenix Vrbata hit the net on 79.1%, 81.2% and 76.4% of his shot attempts. It is entirely possible that Vrbata was simply trying much harder to pick corners this season and thus hit the net fewer times but actually scored more goals. I wouldn't hang my hat on this theory but it is worth considering none-the-less.
This isn't to say that Ryder didn't experience his own luck with shooting percentage. Ryder scored on 16.6% of his shots this season, which is a one-third hike on his career average of 12.6%. He was still lucky this season but nowhere near as lucky as Vrbata. Ryder's jump was more likely the result of improved linemates, ice time and opportunity in general. Ryder's shooting percentage did jump but so did his SOG. Ryder scored more because he shot more, plain and simple.
One must also consider the overall perspective of each player's individual team. There can be little argument that both Dallas and Phoenix overachieved this season despite mediocre offenses that averaged 2.49 and 2.56 goals per game respectively. Dallas however, had the third lowest payroll in the league and just resolved their ownership issues. The forward market is thin so Ryder is unlikely to be replaced as a key cog and none of Ribeiro, Benn or Eriksson is likely to be going anywhere for next season so expect the status quo up front. Dallas could be greatly improved by some spending on the blueline however. If Dallas adds a defenseman or two that could mitigate any expected decline in performance from the forward group.
Phoenix is another story entirely. Their ownership situation is still in flux. The team may not even be in Phoenix next season. Vrbata will still be with the franchise, as will Hanzal, but Whitney is a UFA and turns 40 soon. He may not be back for whatever reason. Team captain, Shane Doan, may not return either. A great deal of Vrbata's offensive support could be on the way out the door and with the aforementioned thin forward market this summer, replacements may be difficult to find. Vrbata may find himself a one-man show next season.
I would not bank on either one of these two for a repeat next season but I think the smart money is on Ryder. Best case scenario for Vrbata has to be both Doan and Whitney returning but even then we don't know how much either of those veterans will have in the tank and even if they do have a ton in the tank Vrbata will simply not shoot 15.1% again. Eriksson, Ribeiro and Benn are a much more foolproof support structure. Bet on Ryder.

3 tans for $10
Not worth it, has it's ups but there are far more DOWNS – I went to Eclispe with a friend, bought a single tan even though the girl really pushed a package, not unwarranted but man she wouldn't give up. Went back to tan again and bought a package, only saved me like $10, but that's a few gallons of gas, so I was game. Every time I went in, all but one of the girls were really snotty, sometimes ignored me for long periods of time while "working on the computer." They will not let you tan without lotion, while they carry many of the top brands they are way pricier than I've ever seen the exact same brands sold for in other tanning salons. On my third fourth trip, the employee put me in a stronger bed for a longer amount of time. I asked if that was okay and would I get burnt, she assured me I would be fine. I was raw when I got out, and I didn't even finish my session. I have never returned, at a loss, since I had given in and bought one of their "fantastic" packages. I made several trips to Eclipse to take friends, and only twice did I ever see a worker I'd seen before. It was very impersonal. On the upside, they are very clean and email out specials allot the time. O, and after I bought the well recommended package, on each returning trip, I was asked and nearly begged to upgrade. To me, tanning is very relaxing and calm, but at Eclipse I felt like an intruder/stranger and that all they cared about was money, not me. It's a shame because they have one of the cleanest salons I have ever seen. If they'd just higher anyone but snotty, snoody and airheaded 20 somethings, I would return tomorrow. (I'm 19, so I'm not expecting perfect service from my peers, but a bit of care would do those girls a world of good. Oh and the one who burned me seemed so utterly shocked when I walked out burned. I just smiled and said have a nice day, but later that night after constant aloe applications, I decided never again
The perfect tanning salon – I checked out all of the tanning salons close to UNC before I picked one. Eclipse was the all-around best. Great staff- not snotty or lazy like at most tanning places. VERY cute set up. Normally salons are cheesy with that whole Miami Beach feel, but Eclipse is gorgeous. Its sponge painted in this burnt orange color with bamboo everywhere. Also, there were tons of beds. You never have to make an appointment or stand in line. Very clean as well. It was actually relaxing and pleasant to visit this salon. I felt rejuvenated when I left.
Not what I expected! – I went to Eclipse tanning salon for the first spray tan of my life. When I walked in the place it was a little hot but I figured that maybe it was just me. I went back into the spraytan room, was instructed to take off my clothes and the lady, who was really nice, began explaining to me what she was going to do and the process and everything. I kept on waiting for it to get cool in there, there was a fan set up but it was hardly enough to keep me cool. Its very important when you are getting sprayed to not get wet and not sweat. This was impossible. I finally made a joke like, they need to put a, a/c vent in this room and I came to find out that the air conditioning was broken and it had been broken for a month!!!! This is crazy! my spray tan, that I payed 30 bucks for is streaky and never fully dried because it was impossible for me to stop sweating in that room or that salon before i put on my clothes, it seriously must have been 85 to 90 degrees in there. I am not exagerating. The girl was really great and did a good job but the owner or manager of this place should not be making appointments for this place in the summer with the a/c broken. I cant even imagine sitting in a regular uv bed it must be over 100 degrees in there. Anyway I don't recomend this place I feel ripped off and am not going back!
Clean and nice people – I was shocked at most tanning salons in the Raleigh/Durham area- nasty! I called to check on this salon and was not keen on the idea of them being in Chapel Hill, but their right next to Baily's on 15-501, close to 40 too! The place was very clean, staff was friendly and they had a ton of choices on beds, stand ups, packages and lotions. They sold me on a 4 month package- great buy!

CD/LP/Track Review
Duane Padilla: Sentimental Swing (2011)
Hot Club of Hulaville violinist Duane Padilla echos the golden age of Stephane Grappelli, by way of Joe Venuti. Sentimental Swing presents nothing new and breaks no revolutionary jazz ground, being made up of ten well-worn jazz standards, presented in a violin-piano-bass trio format. Was all this necessary? Perhaps not, but Padilla does put a pleasant retro spin on some old classics, showing why it is important to recall the past when considering the present.
Padilla opens the disc with an attention-grabbing "How High The Moon," composed by Nancy Hamilton and Morgan Lewis for the 1940 Broadway show Two for the Show, which has served as an important jazz standard in its own right and as a springboard for Charlie Parker's re-composition in "Ornithology."
Padilla plays the song straight, introducing the melody at half-time before gaining swing traction into the familiar foxtrot. Padilla and pianist Tennyson Stephens spar during the theme before carrying the contest to a higher level of invention in the solo sections. Contemporaneous soloing by these two players recalls the same Dixieland practice with more sophisticated material.
Personnel: Duane Padilla: violin; Tennyson Stephens: piano; Stephen Jones: bass.

Ohio State loses a great villain with Bret Bielema's departure
I loved what Bret Bielema brought to the Ohio State-Wisconsin rivalry.
He wanted to beat the Buckeyes badly, and he showed it. He wasn't afraid to take some jabs at the conference's best team, whether at Terrelle Pryor or at Urban Meyer. He was a guy that OSU fans quickly grew to dislike, calling him Bert instead of Bret.
But he was a very good football coach who won a lot of games with a physical style that over the last few years grew more unusual in the spread-football era.
And he never backed down. He stood up for his team and he often backed it up, with the Badgers preparing to play in their third straight Rose Bowl.
I thought he was a great villain in the rivalry in the best sense of the word, more outwardly confrontational than Brady Hoke at Michigan. The Ohio State-Wisconsin rivalry has really evolved in the last few years, and Bielema was a huge part of that.
Check out what Ohio State senior right tackle Reid Fragel wrote on Twitter after the Bielema news broke: "Scared him right out of the Big Ten ..."
How great is that? Not many opposing coaches can elicit that kind of reaction from a Buckeye.
Bielema could. So a good football coach and a perfect bad guy will be missed.

The group included four young Inuit and an elder from the community of Arviat, Nunavut, as well as two faculty members and a research assistant from the University of British Columbia (UBC). The project, led by Professor Frank Tester from UBC, was awarded a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council grant in 2009.
The students' efforts were not in vain, as each Inuit researcher recognized pictures of their respective family members during their visit at LAC, including a photograph (from the 1930s) of Alariaq with his wife Pittau (PA-196445), identified by their great-granddaughter, Amy Owingayak. This material will soon be digitized and made available through Project Naming. Once all of the photos are fully digitized, the Inuit youth will organize photo identification gatherings in Arviat to help with the identification of as many people as possible. The names and other anecdotal information they gather will be added to LAC's database and made available to Canadians.
